  • Abstract
    Mechanical low-β triplet vibrations lead to horizontal jitter of RHIC beams at frequencies around 10Hz. The resulting beam offsets at the interaction points are considered detrimental to RHIC luminosity performance. To stabilize beam orbits at the interaction points, installation of a fast orbit feedback is foreseen. A prototype of this system is being developed and tested. Recent results will be presented.
